Jeremiah 10:17-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
The Coming Exile
17 Gather up your bundle from the ground,
O you who live under siege!
18 For thus says the Lord:
I am going to sling out the inhabitants of the land
at this time,
and I will bring distress on them,
so that they shall feel it.
19 Woe is me because of my hurt!
My wound is severe.
But I said, “Truly this is my punishment,
and I must bear it.”(A)
20 My tent is destroyed,
and all my cords are broken;
my children have gone from me,
and they are no more;
there is no one to spread my tent again
and to set up my curtains.(B)
21 For the shepherds are stupid
and do not inquire of the Lord;
therefore they have not prospered,
and all their flock is scattered.(C)
22 Hear, a noise! Listen, it is coming—
a great commotion from the land of the north
to make the cities of Judah a desolation,
a lair of jackals.(D)
Jeremiah 10:17-22
New American Standard Bible
17 (A)Pick up your bundle from the ground,
You who live under siege!
18 For this is what the Lord says:
“Behold, I am (B)slinging out the inhabitants of the land
At this time,
And I will cause them distress,
So that they may [a]be found.”
19 (C)Woe to me, because of my [b]injury!
My (D)wound is incurable.
But I said, “This certainly is a sickness,
And I (E)must endure it.”
20 My (F)tent is destroyed,
And all my ropes are broken.
My (G)sons have gone from me and are no more.
There is (H)no one to stretch out my tent again
Or to set up my curtains.
21 For the shepherds have become stupid
And (I)have not sought the Lord.
Therefore they have not prospered,
And (J)all their flock is scattered.
22 The sound of a (K)report! Behold, it is coming—
A great roar (L)from the land of the north—
To (M)make the cities of Judah
A desolation, a haunt of jackals.
